what did you use to cut out the hole for your key if you mounted it on the side of your fender, dremel? and do you just match the patern of your key to make the cut so it fits snug? thanks

This is where I put mine.. Easy to make, just a piece of flat stock, bend, drill, paint and install. Nobody but me knows where to look for it, haha.

i dont have any photos but i cut holes on the hood to mount the lights and key. the key is a 1 in hole idk the exact size of the lights though. i used flat wood drill bits it works perfect only issue was i need to cut the wires for the one of the lights than splice it back together. hope that helps

I wouldn't cut any holes in your plastic or hood. Just get a cable clamp from the hardware store and bolt it to the upper stem mount. While your at it, drill out one of the holes on the upper stem mount with a 5/8" bit and put your temp light in there. If you have the electric start model, put the neutral light in the other hole after you drill it out.
